Chapter 40 - War! Finale

The battlefield was a scene of carnage and chaos, where the clash of metal and the cries of the wounded filled the air as the knights of the Green Griffin army fought against the relentless onslaught of the Blue Eagle Knights.

In the midst of the battle, two generals from the green griffin knights locked eyes with grim determination. Luke, clad in a menacing suit of armor, gripped his morning star mace tightly, its spiked surface dripping with the blood of fallen knights, the Green Griffin Knight General, wore elegant armor adorned with the marks of all previous battles and brandished a finely crafted longsword gleaming with malice.

The two generals circled each other, their eyes locked in intense gazes that spoke volumes without words. The Green Griffin Knight General, filled with a mix of excitement and anger, decided to taunt his opponent. "I have seen the way you fight, Luke. You're nothing but a mindless brute," he sneered. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?"

Luke chose not to respond, his silence serving as an answer in itself. With a powerful swing of his morning star, he launched the first attack, the spiked mace whirling through the air with frightening speed.

The Green Griffin Knight General deftly parried the blow, and their duel erupted into a ferocious exchange of strikes and counters. Each blow resonated with thunderous impacts, sending vibrations up their arms. Both generals displayed tremendous strength and skill, refusing to give an inch in their relentless pursuit of victory.

After a momentary pause, they circled each other once again. The Green Griffin Knight General continued his taunting, "You think you can defeat me with that crude weapon? Your mace is nothing compared to my skill with a sword. It will be a delight to see you fall."

Undeterred, Luke's eyes flashed with determination. As his opponent charged towards him, Luke braced himself and swung his morning star mace in a horizontal sweep. The spiked ball collided with the general's sword, creating a moment of vulnerability. Luke seized the opportunity, using the chain of his morning star mace to snare the general's leg, causing him to lose balance and fall. However, the general rolled away, demonstrating his agility and resilience.

"That was just luck"The general shouted annoyed at Luke's silents, the general got up quickly and charged again, his sword moving with war power energy, green glow appear on the general sword, The onslaught was swift and relentless, Luke may be fast with his large body but the green griffin general was too fast, he struggled to keep up with the lightning-fast strikes, resulting in multiple cuts and black blood oozing from his wounds.

"Your silence won't save you," The general taunted now."And even if you spoke your words won't win this battle," The general said, his voice calm slashing at Luke.

Luke summoned his war power energy to create a black spiked ball shield, 'Eagle's Unyielding Defense,' that deflected the general's sword strikes, no matter how many times he swung.

The general stopped an scanned the spiked ball"You won't be in there too long" He said excitedly lowing his sword, An opening appeared, and Luke seized it, releasing his spiked ball, but with his war power-infused mace, Luke slammed it onto the ground creating a boom, 'Azure Talon Quake.' Spider web cracks filled the ground, causing the general's balance to be compromised, the energy shockwave to hit the also general pushing him back.

Their duel continued, and soon, both knights bore the wounds of their battle. Luke's body showed deep gashes, while the green griffin's body also showed holes and deep gashes. Despite the pain, they fought on with unwavering determination, each refusing to back down.

As the battle reached its peak, a moment of opportunity arose, The green griffin general feigned a retreat, bringing Luke closer to him his sword swung toward Luke's neck, but Luke swung his morning star with all his remaining strength downward at him.

Meanwhile, away from the fight between Luke and the Green Griffin Knight General, Chase stood with his heart pounding in his chest in bloodied armor, blood dripping gripping his wound, with his trusty spear with a mixture of excitement and determination, as the green griffin general got closer to him.

As the two forces clashed, Chase spotted his target a figure dressed in ornate armor, exuding an aura of authority that demanded respect, There the green griffin general came walking toward him.

As the dust settled around them, Chase and The green griffin general locked eyes once more, their breaths heavy with exertion. They stood a short distance apart.

Chase spoke first, a hint of admiration in his voice despite the pain he felt from his wounds. "You fight well, killing a lot of our knights"

The green griffin's general piercing gaze softened slightly as he replied, "And you, are no ordinary knight. Your spearwork is formidable,"

Chase charged towards The green griffin general, his spear held high. The battlefield seemed to blur around him, the sounds of battle fading into the background as he focused on his opponent. The clash of their weapons echoed like a symphony of steel.

Their duel was a dance of deadly grace. Chase's spear moved like lightning, striking with precision and agility. He feinted and dodged, testing The green griffin general defenses, and managing to graze the enemy general's armor in the process. But The green griffin general was no ordinary general. He retaliated with swift and calculated strikes, his sword seeking to find the slightest opening in Chase's defense.

'Eagle's Graceful Parry'Chase thought as war power energy filled his spear holding onto his spear pole he keep deflecting the green griffin general strikes with ease and grace.

As the duel intensified, both knights sustained wounds. Chase's armor bore the marks of the green griffin general blade, while the enemy general found himself pierced by Chase's spear in a moment of swift retaliation.

The battlefield around them seemed to fade away as they became fully engrossed in their duel, oblivious to the chaos unfolding nearby. Each parry, thrust, and strike carried the weight of their training, skill, and desire to emerge victorious, The air was charged with the palpable energy of two knights giving their all, that they didn't notice that they were backing into Luke and the other general.

Despite their injuries, neither Chase nor the green griffin general showed any sign of backing down. Their movements became slower and more deliberate.

At one critical moment, when Chase was about to strike he felt the ground shake behind him, looking over his shoulder he saw Luke and the other general were about to strike their ending attack, Chase trusted his spear forward at the general and the freezing effect on his spear activated onto the general as pieces of ice started to appear on the general armor and leg causing him to slow down, but chase also had no choice but to turn around to dodge the general strike, swinging his spear around as he's turning to slice the other general neck causing the general head falling off its shoulder, Luke mace came down onto Chase general who slashed again at Chase, as Luke mace landed onto general ice body broke into glass shards, the sound of ice breaking into the air, with his flesh and blood showing.

Chase and Luke, Bloodied and weakened, both staggered, each leaning on their weapons for support.
